First seen Jun 16, 2026 · Last updated Jun 16, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a special type of CT scan (dual energy CT) can help doctors better understand and predict the severity of pulmonary hypertension, a condition of high blood pressure in the lungs. Researchers looked at lung images from 60 adults already diagnosed with the disease. The goal was to see if combining measurements of lung structure and blood flow could improve prediction of how serious the condition is.
